We've all been there, and I do mean all of us.

You've had a brutally long day at the office, on the job site, at the family reunion, out working in the yard, or what have you, and the thing you're looking forward to the most once you're done for the day is to unwind and relax, starting with a nice, hot shower.

But then reality hits once you step under the spray of water.

The pressure stinks, forcing you to stay in the shower that much longer to wash and rinse your hair and get cleaned up and refreshed. By the time you're done, you're not feeling relaxed. You're exhausted all over again - and agitated.

On Wednesday, however, help was on the way in the form of an executive order from President Donald Trump that reversed the "low flow shower head" energy regulations that dated back to the Obama-Biden years and which deprived so many of the water pressure they deserved:

Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday rolling back a federal regulation he has blamed for poor water pressure. His order would eliminate restrictions the Obama administration placed on how much water can flow from shower heads, an effort to conserve resources. Trump relaxed those standards during his first term, but President Joe Biden put them back in place.

“No longer will shower heads be weak and worthless,” said a draft of Trump’s order, adding that it intended to “make America’s showers great again.”

Trump has for years lamented the effect of low water pressure on his “gorgeous” and “perfect” hair.

Watch:

Fact sheet info from the White House website on the Maintaining Acceptable Water Pressure in Showerheads executive order:

  • President Trump is restoring sanity to at least one small part of the federal regulations, returning to the straightforward meaning of “showerhead” from the 1992 energy law, which sets a simple 2.5-gallons-per-minute standard for showers.
  • The Order frees Americans from excessive regulations that turned a basic household item into a bureaucratic nightmare. No longer will showerheads be weak and worthless.

[...]

By restoring shower freedom, President Trump is following through on his commitment to dismantle unnecessary regulations and put Americans first.

I'm not ashamed to admit that on and off throughout the last ten years, I have used the trick many people learned after the Obama rules went into effect. After all, after a hard day at work, I think I earned the right to that stronger water pressure:

Most low-flow showerheads have a rubber pressure-reducing valve (called a regulator) to maintain a lower pressure. You can increase the flow by simply taking it out. You could also consider enlarging the hole that allows water into your showerhead with a drill to increase the amount of water coming through.

Though this executive order will no doubt make millions of people happy, I think we know who will be the most pleased by it:

Better hair days are here again. Hooray!
